Many CLI commands do not interact with the NETCONF server. Also, typing in a local CLI (i.e., building a command to be send) also does not talk to the server at all. As a side effect, the NETCONF server typically drops the connection after a timeout at unexpected times, which is annoying.
The suggestion is to start sending some dummy command via a timer, if at all possible.
